[0002] In agricultural machinery, reverse-flow cooling fans ensure that the radiator does not become clogged, especially in dusty working environments such as construction machinery and vehicles.

The cooling fan backflush control valve can be flexibly matched with the hydraulic system, especially in situations where the hydraulic system is already fixed, there are no extra oil pumps, but the fan backflush function still needs to be added, thus reducing production and modification costs.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0009] Furthermore, the directional valve is a two-position four-way directional valve, and the outlet of the directional valve is closed.

[0010] Furthermore, when the cooling fan is running normally, the directional valve is not energized and operates in the shut-off position; the inlet of the directional valve is connected to outlet one, and outlet two of the directional valve is connected to the return port of the directional valve; there is no feedback pressure at the control end of the logic valve, and the logic valve operates in the connected position; the hydraulic oil output by the oil pump flows through inlet P, logic valve, and auxiliary port P1 into the existing hydraulic pipeline or oil tank originally connected to the oil pump outlet.

[0011] Furthermore, when the cooling fan needs to backflush, the reversing valve is energized and operates in the connected position; the inlet of the reversing valve is connected to outlet two, and outlet one of the reversing valve is connected to the return port of the reversing valve. The control end of the logic valve has feedback pressure, and the logic valve operates in the connected position under the combined action of the control end pressure and the inlet pressure; after the hydraulic oil output by the oil pump flows into inlet P, part of it flows into the cooling fan backflush control port through the pressure reducing valve, damping orifice, reversing valve, and working port A, and the other part flows into the existing hydraulic pipeline or oil tank originally connected to the oil pump outlet through the logic valve and auxiliary port P1.

[0016] In the diagram: 1. Relief valve; 2. Logic valve; 3. Pressure reducing valve; 4. Damping orifice; 5. Directional control valve. Detailed Implementation

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] Example 1

[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, a cooling fan backflush control valve includes: an inlet P for connecting to the outlet of an oil pump, an auxiliary port P1 for connecting to an existing hydraulic pipeline or oil tank originally connected to the outlet of the oil pump, a working port A for connecting to the cooling fan backflush control port, a return port T, an overflow valve 1, a logic valve 2, a pressure reducing valve 3, a damping orifice 4, and a reversing valve 5.

[0020] The inlet P is connected to the inlet of logic valve 2 and the inlet P3 of pressure reducing valve 3 respectively; the outlet of logic valve 2 is connected to auxiliary port P1; the outlet A3 of pressure reducing valve 3 is connected to the inlet P5 of directional valve 5 through damping hole 4; the outlet B5 of directional valve 5 is connected to working port A and control port of logic valve 2.

[0021] The return port T5 of the reversing valve 5 and the return port T3 of the pressure reducing valve 3 are respectively connected to the return port T.

[0022] The inlet of relief valve 1 is connected to inlet P, and the outlet of relief valve 1 is connected to return port T.

[0023] The reversing valve 5 is a two-position four-way reversing valve, and the outlet of the reversing valve 5, A5, is closed.

[0024] 1. When there is no spare oil pump, the inlet P of the cooling fan backflush control valve is connected to the outlet of the oil pump, and the auxiliary port P1 is connected to the existing hydraulic pipeline that was originally connected to the outlet of the oil pump. That is, the cooling fan backflush control valve is connected in series to the hydraulic pipeline of the oil pump outlet through the inlet P and the auxiliary port P1.

[0025] (1) If the cooling fan is running normally, the reversing valve 5 is not energized and works in the cut-off position; the inlet P5 of the reversing valve 5 is connected to the outlet A5, the outlet B5 of the reversing valve 5 is connected to the return port T5 of the reversing valve 5, the control end of the logic valve 2 has no feedback pressure, and the logic valve 2 works in the connected position under the action of the inlet pressure; the hydraulic oil output by the oil pump flows into the existing hydraulic pipeline that is originally connected to the outlet of the oil pump through the inlet P, the logic valve 2, and the auxiliary port P1.

[0026] The relief valve 1 is initially closed. When the load of other working devices connected to the auxiliary port P1 increases until the pressure set by the relief valve 1 is reached, the relief valve 1 opens, and the hydraulic oil returns to the oil tank through the cooling fan backflow port T of the control valve.

[0027] Whether pressure reducing valve 3 is open depends on whether the other working device connected to auxiliary port P1 is functioning. If the other working device connected to auxiliary port P1 is in an unloaded state (working pressure is 0), the pressure at the inlet P3 and outlet A3 of pressure reducing valve 3 is equal, and its magnitude is equal to the initial set pressure of logic valve 2, 10 bar. At this time, pressure reducing valve 3 is in the normally open position. If the other working device connected to auxiliary port P1 is in a working state, the pressure at the inlet P3 of pressure reducing valve 3 is equal to the working pressure of the other working device connected to auxiliary port P1, and the pressure at the outlet A3 of pressure reducing valve 3 is equal to the set pressure of 40 bar. Pressure reducing valve 3 is in a state of frequent switching between opening and closing, so that the outlet A3 of pressure reducing valve 3 always maintains a pressure of 40 bar.

[0028] (2) When the cooling fan needs to backflush, the reversing valve 5 is energized and operates in the connected position; the inlet P5 of the reversing valve 5 is connected to the outlet B5, the outlet A5 of the reversing valve 5 is connected to the return port T5 of the reversing valve 5, the control end of the logic valve 2 has feedback pressure, and the logic valve 2 operates in the connected position under the combined action of the control port pressure and the inlet pressure; after the hydraulic oil output by the oil pump flows into the inlet P, part of it flows into the cooling fan backflush control port through the pressure reducing valve 3, the damping hole 4, the reversing valve 5, and the working port A, and the other part flows into the existing hydraulic pipeline that was originally connected to the oil pump outlet through the logic valve 2 and the auxiliary port P1.

[0029] The feedback pressure at the control end of logic valve 2 is equal to the set pressure of outlet A3 of pressure reducing valve 3, which is 40 bar. Under the action of the inlet pressure, logic valve 2 is in the connected position, and hydraulic oil flows through the outlet of logic valve 2 to auxiliary port P1. If other working devices connected to auxiliary port P1 are in an unloaded state or their working pressure is lower than 50 bar, the inlet pressure of logic valve 2 is equal to the control port pressure of logic valve 2 plus the initial set pressure of logic valve 2, which is 10 bar, i.e., the inlet pressure of logic valve 2 is 50 bar. If the working pressure of other functional working devices connected to auxiliary port P1 is higher than 50 bar, the inlet pressure of logic valve 2 is equal to the working pressure of the other working devices connected to auxiliary port P1. Regardless of whether other working devices connected to auxiliary port P1 are working, as long as the inlet pressure of logic valve 2 is ≥ 50 bar, pressure reducing valve 3 is in an open / closed switching state, ensuring that the outlet pressure A3 of pressure reducing valve 3 is stable at 40 bar.

[0030] 2. When there is an excess oil pump, the inlet P of the cooling fan backflush control valve is connected to the outlet of the "excess oil pump", and the auxiliary port P1 is connected to the oil tank.

[0031] (1) If the cooling fan is operating normally, the reversing valve 5 is not energized and operates in the cut-off position; the inlet P5 of the reversing valve 5 is connected to the outlet A5, and the outlet B5 of the reversing valve 5 is connected to the return port T5 of the reversing valve 5. There is no feedback pressure at the control end of the logic valve 2, and the logic valve 2 operates in the connected position under the action of the inlet pressure; the hydraulic oil output by the oil pump flows into the oil tank through the inlet P, the logic valve 2, and the auxiliary port P1. The inlet pressure of the logic valve 2 is the initial set pressure of 10 bar.

[0032] The relief valve 1 is initially in the closed state.

[0033] The pressure at the inlet P3 of the pressure reducing valve 3 is equal to the initial set pressure of logic valve 2, which is 10 bar. At this time, the pressure reducing valve 3 is in the normally open position.

[0034] (2) When the cooling fan needs to backflush, the reversing valve 5 is energized and operates in the connected position; the inlet P5 of the reversing valve 5 is connected to the outlet B5, the outlet A5 of the reversing valve 5 is connected to the return port T5 of the reversing valve 5, the control end of the logic valve 2 has feedback pressure, and the logic valve 2 operates in the connected position under the combined action of the control port pressure and the inlet pressure; after the hydraulic oil output by the oil pump flows into the inlet P, part of it flows into the cooling fan backflush control port through the pressure reducing valve 3, the damping hole 4, the reversing valve 5, and the working port A, and the other part flows into the oil tank through the logic valve 2 and the auxiliary port P1.

[0035] The hydraulic oil output by the oil pump flows into the cooling fan backflush control port through inlet P, pressure reducing valve 3, damping orifice 4, reversing valve 5, and working port A.

[0036] The feedback pressure at the control end of logic valve 2 is equal to the set pressure of outlet A3 of pressure reducing valve 3, which is 40 bar. Under the influence of the inlet pressure, logic valve 2 operates in the connected position, and hydraulic oil returns to the oil tank through the outlet of logic valve 2 to the auxiliary port P1. The inlet pressure of logic valve 2 is equal to the pressure at the control port of logic valve 2 plus the initial set pressure of logic valve 2, which is 10 bar, i.e., the inlet pressure of logic valve 2 is 50 bar. Pressure reducing valve 3 is in an open / closed switching state, ensuring that the outlet pressure A3 of pressure reducing valve 3 remains stable at 40 bar.

[0037] In this invention, the pressure of the overflow valve and the pressure reducing valve can be adjusted according to actual needs. Through electronic control, the fan can be switched to reverse blowing within specific time periods, and the duration of the reverse blowing can be controlled. This invention allows technicians to flexibly match hydraulic systems, especially in situations where the hydraulic system is already fixed, there are no spare pumps, but a fan reverse blowing function needs to be added, thus reducing production and modification costs.

[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
